EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick made a surprise discovery when Charlie Winter joined him in Walford in 2018. The 26-year-old found out that his new co-star, 24, was actually more than just an actor - he was in fact family.

Jamie, who has played Jay Brown in the soap since 2006, became intrigued when the actor shared the same name as his uncle. After a bit of digging Jamie discovered that the actor who played Hunter was his second cousin.
